Reader Reviews
This review is from: Practical Electrical Wiring: Residential, Farm, Commercial and Industrial: Based on the 2005 National Electrical Code (Practical Electrical Wiring: Residential, Farm, Commercial & Industr) (Paperback) This book is an excellent reference for anyone who is engaged in electrical work of any kind. This edition is updated with the latest National Electrical Code. What makes this book so good is that it is written in clear, and simple language, full of helpful examples, techniques, tables, shortcuts, illustrations, quick calculation methods, and tips, allowing the do-it-yourselfer as well as the professional practitioner, to do their job right, taking into account all the "safety must". The book covers completely all requirements for over current protection, grounding and installation applied to all commonly used wiring methods. As it was the case with previous editions, this book is organized in three Parts. Part 1 presents the fundamentals of electrical work, terminology, basic principles, and theory behind general practice. Part 2 deals with the actual wiring of residential buildings and farms. Part 3 covers the actual wiring of nonresidential buildings, like factories, schools, stores, commercial and industrial buildings. Absolutely a must have if you deal with electrical work.
